Birdman Amnestied, Give him a shot?

Denver just amnestied him? Should we give him a go? We could use some help at center...

Birdman and Royce White can compete on tattoos.
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming

birdman is an undersized center, so that makes him a power forward. signing him would be a good idea

Didn't Birdman get his house raided by the authorities over allegations of child porn? I read somewhere that is why he didn't play in the playoffs.

Hell frigging no.

He did and I think it was all false. Like a fake tip or something.

If it was real then I wish bad things on him.

So no he didn't.

But still, no to Birdman.

Too much baggage. Would be better if we were an already established team in championship contention. Would have been a solid pick-up back in the days, but not anymore. We've got a team that needs development, not attitude just yet.

I think they should. I can't picture dmo matching vs any nba center. Or josh harrelson be a starter. We have no centers. Sign him , let him backup asik. But he looks like he has too much baggage. Bad influence to youngsters. So I'll have a second thought and say no!
